[Article] Tough Tim Expects He'll Play

Thomas did not practice yesterday but told reporters on his way off the court after shooting free throws with the rest of the team that he would play tonight against Golden State at the Garden. He's listed as probable.

"I'm not sure," coach Herb Williams said. "I think Tim will be OK. I haven't had a chance to sit down and talk to him yet. He didn't come back in last night, he didn't do much today. Hopefully he'll be ready for [tonight]."

Yea it's too bad Thomas has had all this bad luck. He is truly skilled, and is blessed with the size to really dominate at his position. The past week or two, we've seen what he can truly do, and I'm impressed.
